Kerry – Lieberman: Corrupt Climate Science Used To Destroy US Economy

Kerry – Lieberman: Corrupt Climate Science Used To Destroy US Economy; Canada Free Press

The Kerry - Lieberman American Power Act (APA) is a disastrous, unnecessary solution for a non-existent problem. Worse, it’s a problem that exists only in a grossly inadequate computer model whose projections have never been correct. It is predicated on the false assumption that an increase in CO2 causes a temperature increase. Every record of any duration for any period in Earth’s history shows temperature increases before CO2 increases. The false assumption is the basis of all global warming and climate change used in the corrupted research and models of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). It is impossible to imagine such an unjustified basis for any action, except to undermine the US economy for political gain.

It will make the US economy uncompetitive, dramatically increase the cost of living and give more power to the government. This is already proven in the failure of countries that have pursued similar alternative energies and green economies.

The name of the Act is in the deceptive tradition of climate-based energy policy. It was carbon credits, then carbon tax, cap and trade, and now the APA but they are all the same and completely unnecessary. Carbon credits were designed as a global equalization of wealth. Developed nations had to pay for the sin of making their money by using fossil fuels and producing the planet destroying global warming. Cap and Trade appeared virtuous by capping the planet-destroying CO2 while creating trade and business opportunity. It is actually the same old tax grab with more government control. The APA invokes patriotism and implies energy independence, especially from oil. The spill in the Gulf is unfortunate but has reinforced the push. As Rahm Emmanuel, White House Chief of Staff said, “Never let a serious crisis go to waste.”

on average the natural gas and electricty bill for my 3bdrm 2bath home (combined) is less than $50/mo here in New Mexico. no solar, no wind power-just a few money savers-like washing the dishes by hand, insulation (from he--) in floor, walls, ceiling and the roof. a little effort and sweat and most anyones home could have the same... but it required effort and lets face it-the U.S. has gotten fat, lazy and self absorbed. walk down the street or in a mall, look at all the 'swollen' people lumbering about texting/blogging/skyping/tweeting. it's like that disney robot movie where all people do is sit, eat, and veg out.... oops! better go rake the yard now before an illegal offers to do it on the cheap!
